Beiyang 1917

Chapter 316

For Rzhevsky, it was not an easy job to lead an understaffed division to guard the camp of 24000 lightly and seriously wounded and Chernigovka, especially when more than 20000 lightly and seriously wounded woke up. Come, I found that the main force of the southern group stationed in the surrounding villages had retreated silently early in the morning. The wounded of the Soviet Red Army said that it would be trivial to be filled with righteous indignation. If they had weapons in their hands, they could destroy the entire empty camp. all dismantled

When Rzhevski, the commander of the Fourth Army, appeared in front of the wounded with fully armed infantry division commanders, he temporarily calmed down the scene, waiting for the cavalry regiment to take back the lightly and severely wounded of the 4000 cavalry division under the city of Ufa. After leaving the camp, the wounded soldiers became angry again

Many of the wounded were inspired by the propaganda of the Ufa All-Russian Temporary Government at the beginning, and they were unwilling to come back this time, but the Ufa White Guards did not leave anyone behind, and the eyes of the other Bolsheviks around them were full of bitter hatred and wanted to eat people , Many talents followed the crowd and returned to the Soviet Red Army. Who would have thought that the main force of ten divisions would disappear without a trace after one night, which was beyond the expectations of all the wounded. }

If it weren't for the nearly 8000 heavily armed former comrades-in-arms holding long bayonets and Mosin Nagant rifles in the surrounding area, if it weren't for the wounded who were almost unarmed and unarmed, Chernigovka would have blown up the camp long ago.

Fortunately, the commander of the Fourth Army, Rzhevski, had always had enough prestige in his own team. Now that he came forward, most of these wounded were soldiers of the Fourth Army. Therefore, after Rzhevski tried his best to persuade After being scolded and scolded, the team finally stabilized for the time being, and the wounded from dozens of surrounding villages were gathered in the town of Chernihivka. At least there are houses here, which are better than living in tents. *bubble! Book*

Almost all the medical teams and ambulance carriages of the entire southern group remained. Among the more than 600 medical soldiers, there were more than 500 female soldiers, and doctors were far from enough. There were only fifty military doctors in the entire field hospital, but they had to lead six hundred medical soldiers. Treating and caring for 24000 lightly and severely wounded, each nurse has to take care of 40 wounded, and each doctor has to manage 400 wounded. There is not enough medicine and bandages. The female soldiers had to tear off the sheets and boil them in boiling water before drying them. as a bandage

Among the 24000 lightly and seriously wounded, the seriously wounded accounted for one-third. Most of the lightly wounded were able to move on their own, while the seriously wounded had to be carried by horses or people. Rzhevsky selected some of the lightly wounded. The 8000 people who were able to act and shoot by themselves formed a division and armed them with some of the firearms left by the Southern Group. The guns were barely enough, but the average bullets were about five rounds per person.

The remaining 8000 lightly wounded helped the medics take care of the 8000 seriously wounded one-on-one. The entire position was arranged in an irregular hexagon by Rzhevsky, with the town of Chernigovka in the center. Each side is about 3 kilometers long, each side is garrisoned by a regiment of troops, and trenches have also been dug on the fields and hills.

The heavy machine guns were all set up as fixed firepower points. Although there were not many bullets, the area to be defended was also small. Therefore, when a cavalry brigade of the Ufa White Guards screamed and launched an attack, they were quickly taken back by Maxim. The machine gun fired back and left more than 200 corpses. This small victory restored the morale of the Red Army on the entire defense line.

And Lezhevsky's slogan to boost morale and stabilize the army's morale is:

"The commander of the army group is with you and the main force is to detour and outflank the enemy's rear. Within three days, the reinforcements of the fifth and ninth armies will arrive. Persistence is victory. Victory belongs to the glorious fourth army. Victory belongs to the Soviet Red Army, glory belongs to the Soviets"

Although it is encouraging to repel the attack of a cavalry brigade of the White Guards by relying on the strength of the remaining two divisions, at least two cavalry divisions flooded in from both sides of the Soviet Russian Red Army position. The Cossack cavalry of the White Guards waved their shining sabers to intimidate, laugh and scold, laughed at and squeezed the Red Army infantry lying behind their positions.

The sound of horseshoes rumbling like a tide rumbled the earthquake, and the courage that Lezhevski's team had just mustered dissipated a lot. After consecutive defeats, the Fourth Army, which was at a disadvantage and had low morale, was no longer He has the courage to challenge the two Cossack cavalry divisions, not to mention that there are only 15000 people on their side who can go into battle, and the opponent has a full [-] cavalry

The soldiers of the Chabayev Cavalry Division of the First Army, who were left behind by Rzhevsky's cavalry regiment, also looked solemn. Looking at the White Guard Cossack cavalry who were showing off their might in the distance, the eyes of the Red Army soldiers were filled with anger and sadness. There is no strength to challenge the enemy now

In fact, Tukhachevsky left this cavalry regiment in order to keep the commander of the Fourth Army Rzhevsky and his headquarters to break through when necessary, hoping that a cavalry regiment of 2500 people can change the situation of the battle Saving the fate of the 24000 lightly and seriously wounded in the southern group is undoubtedly a dream

The opponent's cavalry didn't stay in front of Lezhevski's position for too long, and soon rushed to the west like a flood. Obviously, they might be chasing the main force of the retreating southern group, but Lezhevski fell. Don't worry about the White Guard's Cossack cavalry division catching up with the main force of the Southern Group

If you use two cavalry divisions to attack ten infantry divisions, unless the opposing commander is insane, you will never gain any advantage. Of course, if the Southern Group is not organized well during the retreat, you are not guaranteed to be snatched from the back of your ass. meat, but no matter what, it will definitely not be able to form a fatal blow to the main force of the cluster

The Cossack cavalry on both sides of the Red Army's position had not yet disappeared in the western field. Two squadrons of 36 coalition planes were buzzing in the sky, circling overhead. Lezhevski, who dispatched the air force and armored troops in Ufa, sank in his heart. He was afraid of what would happen. Obviously, the coalition forces had participated in the process of the Ufa battle from the beginning to the end. The heavy artillery is probably the artillery of the coalition army.

The only thing that is uncertain is how many troops the coalition forces have dispatched to intervene in the situation west of the Ural Mountains, and what kind of strategic goals they want to achieve, whether to defend the capital of Ufa for the Kolchak regime, or to fully cooperate with Soviet Russia. Let’s start a war and burn it to Moscow. Of course, the coalition forces are now the thugs and vanguards of the imperialists of the Allied Powers intervening in the internal situation of Soviet Russia, and they are the spokespersons of the Allied Powers on the Russian Eastern Front.

Rzhevsky is a bold and careful general. In this aspect, he was greatly influenced by the Tsarist Russian military god Brusivov during his growth. The lord of the world, the lord who was the division commander under Brusilov's group army, soon he asked clearly from the wounded cavalry division about the battle process of the cavalry division's destruction

Although the wounded who were questioned had lingering fears, they said that the opposing coalition forces were Chinese armored troops all over the mountains and plains. Not only were the wheeled armored vehicles equipped with amazing heavy machine guns with large-caliber range and lethality, but the firepower of the infantry squads they carried was also It is amazingly powerful, and the Chinese armored forces are equipped with a large number of mortars. Soldiers can skillfully operate mortars and say that they can make bombs rain down. When the fighters and bombers in the sky start to sweep and bomb in turn , the entire [-]st Cavalry Division of the Fourth Army, which was once so heroic, almost collapsed
